The atmosphere of the cold field seems to be cold, but in fact, it is the opposite, those who come prepared are righteous and calm, but those who are not prepared are worried and anxious.

Karol had been giving Ernst a look, and it was clear that the situation was a little different from what he had envisioned.

In silence, the waiter came up with a steak and placed it in front of Durin, and placed a knife and fork for him—two sets in all, for there was a small piece of accompaniment to the plate in addition to the steak.

The topic of how to use tableware can be extended into a thick academic book, and the aristocracy's demanding requirements for the details of life make their daily routine become an ordeal in the eyes of ordinary people, and this is indeed the case when you think about it. It takes about two hours just to dress up every day, and if you want to participate in some grand banquets, this time may be longer, how can the ordinary life of ordinary people bear so refreshing?

But in the eyes of the aristocracy, the standardization of words and deeds is the most effective way to distinguish between the "aristocracy" and the "untouchables" in this new era. They are becoming more and more strict with the rules they have come up with, and it seems that in this way they can get the pleasure of superiority. Especially when they look arrogantly, with a smile of pity at those untouchables who have no status, gobble up and wipe their mouths after eating, they will make a helpless expression to the people around them.

Lo and behold, this is the pariahs!

Although there are many things in the rules of the aristocracy that do not have any value, people like to follow them, because everyone wants to be the elite of high society, which is a class and circle full of certain temptations, so that all people who call themselves successful people want to get into it.

People are always ridiculing or denigrating something that is mainstream, like power, like money, like class. But everyone envies those who have these things at the same time, which is a very contradictory psychological activity, and in another world, people call this psychology "hatred of the rich". It's not just the rich who hate the rich, but there are many other things that you don't have.

This is a high-end restaurant, and the reception is naturally full of people with status, and Durin doesn't know this, so he chooses a relatively more convenient and larger tableware to dine. He cut the steaks very roughly, and inserted a piece of beef that was significantly larger than a fork into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it a few times, and nodded in satisfaction.

It tasted so much better than all the steaks he had ever tasted, he had never tasted so good, and as he looked back at the waiter, he paused for a moment before asking, "Where did this steak come from?"

With an extremely standard smile on the waiter's face, eight teeth were revealed, and the clean and neat teeth glowed faintly in the light, "This is the Wagley cow, which is only produced in a very small part of the pastures of the empire, and the price is very expensive, and the one you eat will cost sixty-eight yuan, sir." ”

Durin whistled, sixty-eight dollars, how many bottles of wine do you have to sell to earn money for a meal for one person? There is no doubt that the red wine on the table and the food in front of the two big men, the price of this meal is definitely more than he imagined. You know, he had nibbled on bread that was harder than a stone, and had to sprinkle a little water and heat it up next to the fire to barely nibble down on the next layer.

It was too extravagant, he sighed, and continued to eat the uneven cuts of beef.

"Don't you two have anything to say?", Durin asked as he chewed, crumbs of meat and soup bursting out of his mouth.

Karul looked at Durin with an indifferent expression, but Ernst opened his mouth first, and after observing Durin with a frown for a while, he asked with some hesitation: "You are the ...... of that day." A dollar?", this sentence carried an obvious inquiry, for Ernst had seen Durin himself for the first time, and at the same time remembered the boy of that day, and had helped him deliver something to some other people, and had paid a dollar for it.

Durin also paid attention to Ernst at this time, and then nodded happily, "I remember, since we are acquaintances, it will be easier to explain the next thing." Durin wiped his mouth after swallowing the last steak quickly, leaning back, "Wood is dead, but someone has to take his shift, and I know there are some rules between you and the others." ”

"I'm going to keep this promise!"

Durin had all the ideas before he came, the rules of the game set by the bosses were not something he could break now, and if he didn't want to be the next unlucky guy who somehow died in some dark corner and became food for rats, then he had to learn to join the game as a "gamer". The rules weren't created so that one day they could be broken by someone or something, and as long as Dührin didn't show that in this regard, he would be safe, at least for a short time.

And people also need a relatively stable order, whether it is about law and order, or about the market.

Ernst picked up a napkin, dipped it to his lips, folded it and placed it on the corner of the table on his left, tilting his head slightly with a very serious expression. The coldness on Karul's face softened slightly, which was good news, and if Durin was willing to play by the rules of the game, then he would have to make concessions.

When the attention of both of them was focused on Durin, Dulin said slowly: "The market is limited, Turnaire is a big city in my eyes, but I believe that in the eyes of the two, this city is nothing, because there are many more prosperous and wealthy cities than Turnair, compared to those places, this is just a slum." I understand that the rules set by those bosses have only one core, and that is competition. ”

"They need us to have competition with each other, a competition that can be managed, and I'm going to follow the rules of the game, but beyond that, I think we can try not to break it in another way, but with a certain 'transcendence' quality. ”

"We continue to compete for this small market in Turnier, and I may use the word 'small', but we should focus on the outside of Turnaire, like Ordor or some other big city, where our main battlefield is. ”

Ernst gradually raised his hand to his chin and stared at Durin, who was intrigued by his proposal.

No one will be indifferent to more money!

"Tell me what you think!"
